Perfect but..
I'm a fan of the plugin but it's out of date. Some settings seem inactive even though they are active :)

Just didn't work
I installed this one Wordpress v5.4.1, entered the CDN URL, hit 'save', the page reloaded, and the URL didn't save. So I did it again, and again, the URL wouldn't save. So I promptly uninstalled it. Not sure if it's an issue with 5.4.1 (since the plugin indicates that it hasn't been tested with this version yet) or what?

Misleading
There are many components to the optimization plugin. VERY MISLEADING when one plugin is called one thing from a developer and another part is called something else from a different developer. I'm trying to see what plugins were bogging down my system, it took over 30 minutes to figure out every plugin that was connected to this. If your going to do an optimization plugin --- keep the name consistent for the developer. BTW it did nothing for my site other than slow it down worse.

Has potential, tries to do everything but not everything works.
Gave it a try. Looks promising but GUI is just too much and support is slow at this point. May try again in future. Back to hyper cache for now.
